F83V2-80.ARK contains F83.COM, a public domain implementation of
FORTH-83 version 2.0 for CP/M-80 that is ready to run. It also
contains source files.
These files are identical to those distributed in F83V2-80.LBR. They
have now been put into this ARK to take advantage of the more efficient
file compression methods available.
The original Laxen-Perry distribution had these files squeezed with a
program that took hours (!) to run to unsqueeze.
The VIEW word expects certain source blocks to be on drive A: and
certain source files to be on drive B:. If you have a hard disk
system, you can follow the directions in README.80 to recompile your
system with all of the source blocks on your hard disk and the VIEW
file numbers will be set up correctly.
Here are the files in this ARK:
--> FILE: F83 .COM The FORTH system compiled.
--> FILE: README .1ST This file
--> FILE: README .80 Original F83 instructions
--> FILE: F83-FIXS.TXT Changes from F83 v.1.0
These "blocks" are the F83 sources
--> FILE: KERNEL80.BLK Kernel source
--> FILE: META80 .BLK Metacompiler source
--> FILE: CPU8080 .BLK 8080 dependent code
--> FILE: EXTEND80.BLK Extensions source
--> FILE: UTILITY .BLK The UTILITY source
These blocks are applications
--> FILE: HUFFMAN .BLK A VERY slow compression program
--> FILE: CLOCK .BLK Source for a calendar example
--> FILE: EXPAND80.BLK Original source to expand .HUF
--> FILE: BASIC .BLK BASIC compiler in F83
